Join us for a wonderfully creative session where you’ll make your own beautiful fabric beaded jewellery. Using soft fabric and large wooden beads, you’ll create either a statement necklace or a bracelet that’s completely unique to you.
We’ll have a fantastic selection of colourful fabrics to choose from, so whether you love bright florals, bold patterns or softer tones, you’ll be spoilt for choice. If you have a favourite piece of fabric at home that you’d love to give a new lease of life, please do bring it along! Thin fabrics such as chiffon, voile, lightweight cotton or silky materials work particularly well.
Once you’ve threaded your fabric through the beads, you can personalise your design by knotting between each bead or adding contrasting coloured spacer beads for extra detail. If you have any large-holed beads tucked away in a craft box at home, feel free to bring those too – this is the perfect opportunity to finally use them! (The holes do need to be fairly large to allow the fabric to pass through.)
We first introduced these necklaces at a couple of summer events, and they were an absolute hit. Everyone’s creations looked completely different, and they were such a joy to see people wearing. They’re lightweight, comfortable, colourful and make a real statement – perfect for adding a splash of personality to any outfit or giving as a handmade gift.
There is just a tiny amount of hand sewing involved to finish your piece, so if you normally wear reading glasses for close-up work, don’t forget to pop them in your bag.
No jewellery-making experience is needed – we’ll guide you through every step. Come along for a relaxed, friendly couple of hours, get creative, have a chat, and leave wearing something you’ll be proud to say you made yourself. ✨
